I knew he had gotten into another relationship a few months after he left, but finding out they got married didn't hurt as much as I thought it would.
I figure, if the man you love is able to truly give his heart to someone worthy of sharing it to the world, then he has found his own happiness. The only thing I wanted for him was happiness and he's found it. And because of that I can finally move on.
In other cases, it just takes time. You don't necessarily have to forget about the person. I think it's better to recognize and be fine with the fact you love someone who you might not get together with in the end. Life moves on.

That's so true. I still am a bit in love with the first man I fell in love with, but we both found different pathways. We are still friends, and you can say that nothing really ended between us. But we are committed to other people now, and I know that we are both happy for each other.
